Hi, I've been trying to update my SparcStation 5 from the installation kernel of 2.2.0-sun4cdm to a 2.4 or a 2.6 kernel for the last 3 months or so (whenever the new libc6 went in), and have had pretty much zero sucess. If the kernel is above about 1.1Mb, I can't boot the kernel, and get something about the destination being too small, but if the kernel is the right size, I doesn't boot anyway. This happens to any kernel, not just 2.6.3.
Booting 2.2.20 gives me: PROMLIB: obio_ranges 1 Booting Linux .... Booting 2.6.3 gives me: PROMLIB: obio_ranges 1 Watchdog reset Reseting ... The PROM version of the machine is, to my mind, extremly old, which may be why I can't boot anything newer than 2.2. ok .version Release 2.15 Version 5 created 95/03/29 14:21:55 [ Please CC me as I'm not subscribed. ] Thanks, -- Steve I've lost my sig!
